Ziply Fiber is using Ethernet connections to power a new 50-Gig residential broadband service that costs $900 per month, plus a $600 installation fee. The speedy offering demonstrates the power of Ziply's network, CEO Harold Zeitz says.
I’ll bet if you actually use it 24/7 they will throttle/disconnect you. “Oh I’m sorry you used up your 1TB limit. No one needs more than that per month! Are you doing something illegal???”
I was running 900 Mbps constant download for over 2 weeks on Zipply and never once got a notice. So they might honestly let people use the full data allowance.
Not that it’s feasible, but they themselves won’t have the bandwidth for a few 50gbps users 24/7.
My 1gbps service is a 2.5gbps GPON split between 32 other users, i’ve always seen 1gbps. But theoretically it would only take 3 of us to max the connection out
I did something similar on Comcrap, but over the course of a month or 2 (Yes, I pay for their stupid little modem so I can get their stupid little addon for unlimited) and speeds varied between 600ish-850ish
I thought for SURE I was going to get something, at the very least a “Hey your usage patterns have massively changed, check your network for intruders” email.
I didn’t get squat, so if Comcrap of all companies can do it I don’t see why any other would have a problem with it lmao
Earlier this year fiber became available to my house, switched providers in a heartbeat to ditch cable. Saved more than half my monthly bill and I get a consistent 945 every time I test it. Rubbing my nipples while telling Cox to go Cox themselves was a high I lived off of for a couple months.
I’ve had Ziply Fiber before (but not 50 Gbps) and would max their upload for months and they didn’t even bat an eye. It’s the only ISP that I would ever recommend.
We have Ziply Fiber at my house (used to have Comcast) and I am kind of blown away by the service. I’ve had problems with outages twice and each time they notified us via text or email. It’s pretty awesome and we torrent all the time.
On Comcast even with the pro blast super plan we were constantly hitting the cap and getting throttled. I don’t even know what the cap is on our plan now. Never seen any evidence of throttling.

130TB huh? That’s a lot of Linux ISOs.
It’s for the family
You better download 2 cuz I’m not sharing.

At the quoted speed, I think they should be legally obligated to provide 15,821 TB of data transfer per month, at a bare minimum.

Oh, its actually “up to” 50gb/s, you may get a lower speed like 3.3mb/s.
We’re hiring!
The job pays between $1 and $1,000,000/yr
I rarely get the top speed that I pay for. At least I’m not paying $900/month for the same speed.
